Spleen and Liver Stiffness Evaluation by ARFI Imaging: A Reliable Tool for a Short-Term Monitoring of Portal Hypertension?

Figure 3

ARFI elastography results for liver stiffness (LSM) evaluation: LSM did not show any significant alterations dependent on response (a) or non-response (b) status defined by corresponding HVPG results (red = baseline, blue = follow-up) (LSM = liver stiffness measurement; HVPG = hepatic venous pressure gradient).
